A little boy dreams of discovering life on Mars. Knowing the boy's sincere endeavors, his elderly neighbor takes a hand in the realization of his wish. A heartwarming wish-fulfillment fable imbued with a sense of childhood innocence and wonder plays out through the hybrid of live-action and traditional animation. The elderly neighbor is played by the seasoned actor David Clendenning and Director Austin Andrews--directed the piece at the age of 20--was dubbed "the next Spielberg" by the Calgary Straight.
